US President Donald Trump has delayed a planned resumption of military strikes on Iran after pressure from Gulf allies and ongoing diplomatic efforts. This comes despite him saying that US forces were “all set to start” operations.
Speaking at the White House on Tuesday, Trump said he had decided to give Tehran a “limited period of time” to produce an acceptable agreement before authorising further attacks. “I’m saying two or three days, maybe Friday, Saturday, Sunday, something, maybe early next week,” CNN reported, citing Trump.
